Yeah and everyone was calling me an asshole for digging into the RPC. I warned you all it was a point of vulnerability and no-one would listen.
And we will do it again unless it's more than HYPOTHETICAL! RANDOM THOUGHT! WHAT IF! |

I couldn't catch last few pages. Is there a hard fork coming? What's the reason? Can someone summarize latest events?
Yes, in a few days. Not much changes in it, and you'll be fine if you're running 0.9.4 or later. The fork after this one will be a big one, adding Shen Noether's RingCT transctions (gmaxwell's confidential transactions married to Cryptonote's ring signatures). As for latest events, we seem to at last have some merchants (darknet ones mostly so far, let this be a hint for purveyors of totally legal stuff to step up their pace!  ), and a few fiat exchanges. |

The Marquess' army looked happy as they passed the gates of the Stonehaven camp, now well on its way to a permant settlement. Scruffy and tired by the long march back from the expedition to North Face, the soldiers' step took on a new energy, glad to be... maybe not quite home, but close enough, at last.
Stories brought by a messenger from the army had already spread like wildfire in the new town. Rumours of strange beasts, gleaming treasures beyond dreams, tall mountains spitting fire and lightning. The Marquess made a mental note to have a quiet word with the messenger later, but for now, it was time to let the group have a well deserved rest before the next expedition.
Indeed, the news from Cryptotown were as momentous as the ones from the north. The King had abdicated in favour of the Marquess of Plath, and the new King was intent on mounting an expedition to capture a dragon!
While intelligence did not support foul play in the surprise changes in the Crown, the abdication might still cause short term disturbances, and the army was back at the right time to prepare for this. Hoping that the dragon quest was not a ploy to gather troops away from their respective counties, Mooo of Stonehaven started making plans to dispatch part of the troops to the south.

Another chunk of code, my client hangs up to 5 minutes just to close:
I suspect it's waiting for the currently processed chunk of 200 blocks to be added before exiting. While it's so waiting, can you check in top where the time is going (CPU, I/O) ? Is bitmonerod mostly in D state ? How much swap do you have, both total and free ? How much RAM do you have, both total and free ? |

That's quite an ordeal. I think someone (moneromooo?) was working on a way of getting the key image from a transaction so you can check the spent status using Moneroblocks API... (like Luigi's coin checker)
In the cold wallet: export_key_images somefilename Copy somefilename to the hot wallet where your view only wallet is In the view wallet: import_key_images somefilename As the inputs owned by the wallet are spent, the view wallet should see those spends. Obviously, if the cold wallet receives new inputs (including change), those key images will need importing too for them to be trackable. |

What is the meaning of the error message below in response to an attempted transfer in simplewallet?
"Error: internal error: Duplicate indices though we did not ask for any"
From IRC: <moneromooo> That is "try again". I'm not sure yet why, but it can be ignored and retried. and if you can catch that while having log level 2 enabled in the wallet, please send logs (make a new issue on github and attach the relevant logs - just the part for the tx being made, keep the rest private). |

Note that all bids and asks will be cancelled prior to the markets opening.
If you want to sell something, and had set an order, you will need to set it again.
Also, time itself does not restart yet. This means no aging, no health challenge, no end of year change.

Sure, laugh at me if we're out in the Ort belt with $25 + per Monero in December by all means.
Is that... past the Kuiper belt, and on its way to the Oort cloud ? |

This is 1700 tps is NOT a good thing to get hung up on.
This is an extrapolation of what a particular bit of the code can handle (the signature verification code that NoodleDoodle optimized). As dEBRUYNE_1 mentions on that link, it is conditional on other things. And it was on some particular machine.
Now, with RingCT, this dropped a lot. RingCT is not optimized yet. At the moment, I get ~10 a second on my old laptop.
Now that I've scared you all, I hope you do remember that waving a number like that is not helpful. There is no such thing as "can monero handle X transactions per second" ? There is such a thing as "can this particular setup handle X transactions per second".
So, please, don't go around and claim monero does 1700 tps or that it shows monero is 242 times as good as bitcoin. Just view this as "this particular thing isn't a bottleneck" to scaling.

one of the honest coins in the world of scams.
Thank you. It's good to see people appreciate this instead of always trying to jump onto the latest P&D  |

We're forking testnet for RingCT testing. Everyone is welcome to participate and try to break it.
v3 happens in a few hours (just a change on coinbase validation).
v4 happens in a bit more than a day, and rct txes become allowed.
v5 happens in 3 days, and rct txes become mandatory (save if you have old unmixable inputs)
Turns out noone had been mining on testnet for a day before now, so diff crashed for a good while, and we'll reach v4 a half day early. rct txes should be enabled in a bit more than half a day now. |

Pull the latest master. You don't need to resync anything if you already have a testnet database.
fluffypony will make binaries in the next day or two if you can't.

Thanks for the help. I found the tx id's of the 3 transactions and indeed the first two can be found via http://moneroblocks.info/ and the last one cannot. When I run rescan_spent though and subsequently run show_transfers the transaction is still there though. BTW: I'm still 1149 blocks behind. Can that be a problem? Possibly your tx was invalid and got rejected by other daemons. Had you sent a tx from the same address, but using another machine, within those 1149 blocks ? If so, you probably unknowingly double spent. In any case, if you use a recent enough wallet, you should see that last tx as "pending" in show_transfers. If it indeed hasn't propagated to the network, you can "flush_txpool" in the daemon, and the wallet will soon notice it and switch it to "failed". There is a bug (fixed in the rct branch) which will need you to run "rescan_spent" after that in order to get the right balance. But first, wait for the chain to be synced. |

I wanted to come and congratulate you folks on passing us in the Coinmarketcap rankings. I hope you all enjoy your profits, and I relish Dash's new position as underdogs trying to overtake yet another currency standing between us and the top. I always enjoyed a challenge!
Cheers and respect,
Tao.
Thank you, very sporting of you. Things can change so quickly in this space. Cheers |

Simple miner --help returns: Allowed options:
--help Produce help message
--pool-addr arg
--login arg
--pass arg What do I do if I don't want to use a pool? Do not use simpleminer, it is obsolete. For solo mining, use bitmonerod: start_mining ADDRESS THREADS Replace ADDRESS with your address, and try several THREADS values from 1 up. If you want to solo GPU mine, I think you can with a newer (git) daemon, but I don't know the specifics. |

Nope, I said I used to have those skills and they have deteriorated and I can no longer function in that area.
Ah, fair enough. I apologize for that part then, I remembered wrong. |

Can you stop wasting everyone's time ?
Pretty much every post you make is you crying wolf over something you found by keyword matching, and expecting people to reply to your huge sense of entitlement. That's why people ignore you.
Aren't you the one who said who had the skills to help out, but wouldn't do it because we didn't have a map of the code or something ?

Yeah, both seem good for a quick buck. Maybe you should just go there and stay.

Download 0.9.4 version, either from https://getmonero.org/downloads/ or pull from github. When you run simplewallet, you will be told the wallet is converted (or maybe asked, say yes if so). Your coins will be there after refresh. If you're unsure, save the .keys file just in case. |

I would have, maybe naively, thought that the keyword was "military", rather than "Israeli"...
I suppose I would be less worried about the Vatican military's crypto subversion prowess, though, I admit.
